Ashkahn
Posted by Amy on Thursday February 25, 2010
Loving the humorous work from Ashkahn (pronounced ash-con). There’s other stuff available from his shop that I’m not showing here for not being not safe for work (NSFW) reasons, though I think it’s hilarious.
I’ll give you three hints: muff, more muffs and booty.

Poketo Papercut wallets
Posted by Amy on Wednesday February 24, 2010
I’m a huge fan of Poketo, but I think their latest collection of papercut series wallets may just be my favorite yet.
Featuring the works of Jayme McGowan, Thereza Rowe, Jared Andrew Schorr and Joe Rogers of Colourbox, these wallets would be awesome when put together! If I had these lovelies they would most likely be framed – they won’t be seeing the inside of my pockets that’s for sure.

Giveaway #28: Anthony Zinonos' loot
Posted by Amy on Tuesday December 1, 2009
I love getting a loot (yes, that’s right) of stuff. Especially when they’re rad and filled with illustrate-y goodness, like this bounty from Anthony Zinonos.
Inside you’ll find one A4 Giclee print, DIY collage kit, ‘Le Dot’ zine, notebook made from vintage and recycled paper and handmade collage badges. I’d say this would make one heck of a stocking stuffer for the lucky winner, wouldn’t you? :)
Comment below to be in the running and be sure to enter by 8th December to be in the running. Did I mention that December 8th is my birthday too? Pity I can’t enter because I would definitely give the birthday girl a big upper hand. Sigh.
Giveaways on Pikaland are global – meaning that EVERYONE from ANYWHERE can enter!

Bang bang you're thread
Posted by Amy on Sunday September 6, 2009
Allison Cole, an artist and illustrator based in Providence, Rhode Island just opened up an Etsy shop filled with all sort of printed goodies, buttons, and more! If you’re like me, then you might probably remember her best for her yeti character in Little Otsu’s The Tour Diary by Allison Cole.
If you need a stronger reason to have one of her works in your home, well you’ll be happy to know that she’s giving away a free Bird Postcard Set with the first 10 orders (she’s now up to 4, so better hurry!)

Gemma Latimer
Posted by Amy on Sunday August 30, 2009
Loving the works of Gemma Latimer who is based in Nottingham. Central to her works is an assortment of strange creatures and characters; images of which were collected at flea markets and charity shops lovingly put together and revealed with the aid of a photocopier.
Read up on her blog for her latest news & works, and also take a peek into her online portfolio while waiting for her website to be ready.
{Thanks for the intro, Amy!}

Mogutakahashi
Posted by Amy on Thursday August 27, 2009
Mogutakahashi is an illustrator based in Tokyo, Japan. I love the fact that her characters have a squishy-like quality to them, and also, I love the cheery color palette!
Her work reminds me of Doinky Doodles, whom I absolutely love – so much silliness and generally happy goods that will brighten up your life that little bit more.
